Sumotron managed to beat the 4 of the Zyuohgers, promoting him to Sekiwake and then Ozeki before he retreated.
Later, he was finding another opponent to make him reach Yokozuna, so Leo (after has some Sumo training) challenged Sumotron to a Sumo match and he agrees to it as he used his Combo:Doskoi! to create an arena for him and Leo to wrestle in. Unfortunatly, Leo was no match for Sumotron even though Leo won the first round and this promotes Sumotron to the Deathgalien Yokozuna Mawashi.
